1 OVERVIEW

The Elcometer 1500 Cylindrical Mandrels and Stand is a
simple-to-use instrument for determining the elasticity, adhesion
and elongation of dried paint on sheet metal.
The instrument includes a set of mandrels of different diameters
which allow the point at which coating failure occurs to be
determined. The mandrels are stored in a stand which also serves
as a holder for a mandrel during the test.
A mandrel is placed in a vee groove on the top of the stand and the
metal test panel is bent by hand over the mandrel.
The test panel is then assessed visually to determine the bending
characteristics of the coating.
